In a post made earlier today, Memphis May Fire announced they would be contributing a track to an upcoming compilation album being put together by Rock Sound titled “Worship And Tributes: Volume II”. The song the band will be contributing is “Faint” by Linkin Park. The rest of the compilation (which will total 13 tracks) includes covers of well known songs being performed by other bands such as Real Friends, Waterparks, Set It Off, Sleeping With Sirens, Our Last Night, and As It Is to name a few.… Continued →

We’re a little behind on this news, but around a month ago, Norma Jean released a B-side from the Polar Similar album called “Children of the Dead”. The song is available on the Polar Similar Deluxe Vinyl Set, which you can get HERE. You can check out the video for this track below, it’s pretty bizarre, but a great song! Right now, the band is in the studio recording their 8th LP and the follow up to Polar Similar, so we can hopefully expect it later this year.… Continued →

Zahna has quickly become a favorite of mine. Her debut album, “Red For War”, dropped last year and really exceeded my expectations. Hard hitting hard rock, smooth melodic vocals, powerful screams…it really impressed. “Your Gun, My Knife” was one of the tracks that stood out to me on my first few listens and today, the music video for that song was released. Check the video out below and let us know what you think!… Continued →

Are you one to seek out some new bands to listen to? There are so many bands and labels out there, it can be easy to let some get by you, but whatever you do, don’t let Raven Faith Records be one of them. Raven Faith Records is a newer label in a way and has a roster that is well worth checking out. A few bands worth mentioning here are Peter118, As We Are, CPR, Desiring Dead Flesh, Thre3, and The Bricks. More recently, the label has signed Outside the Shadows, His Calling, and they’ve renewed a contract with Peter118, who have also released a new single, “Waiting”, this past week.… Continued →

Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh are primed to release a new EP this Spring and we’ve already been given a taste  from their first single, “On the Inside“, but just this past week, we were treated to another track from the EP titled “Give Me A Sign”. This new track maintains their heavy sound, and is really driving and aggressive. The screams you might expect to hear are absent, but it by no means detracts from the track, it’s really quite great. There’s a noticeable growth in their songwriting as the song is very well broken up, musically speaking, making for a really enjoyable listen.… Continued →

Many of us have been eagerly awaiting something new from Death Therapy, and today is the day! The new track, “My Defiance” is available now on all digital platforms (click HERE). The track contains many elements common to the previous album, “The Storm Before the Calm”, however this song is notably heavier than anything on that album, in my opinion. The song features crushing, heavy guitars, guttural screams, and some rather melodic choruses. The song also features a guest spot by Josh Kincheloe of Glasslands and he sounds great on this.… Continued →

Yesterday, Peter118 released a new track on Raven Faith Records called “Waiting” and it really took me by surprise. For those acquainted with the Peter118 sound, you’re in for a big surprise as well. Up to this point, the band has played an edgy, raw punk rock, but this is like Peter118 meets Green Day (Nimrod/Warning era) meets 90s grunge and truthfully, the 90s grunge part stands out the most. This song is very well written, catchy as anything, and displays a real growth in songwriting.… Continued →

Most readers will know Stephen best as the founder/frontman for alternative metal acts Tantrum of the Muse and Unteachers. Where Tantrum and Unteachers ‘taught’ us how to rock out, solo Sarro efforts want to make us uncomfortable. Spirit Shrill is his second solo album, continuing to explore experimental and noise fields. This album is one 55-minute-long track, although there are distinct movements within the piece. Samples abound, and whereas SMS’s last solo album critiqued our culture’s fascination with sex, Spirit Shrill is an unapologetic critique of the Charismatic movement.… Continued →

I’d just like to send out a special congratulations to David who runs Thumper Punk for reaching the 10 year milestone. I remember hooking up with the label back near the beginning and during our last complete site overhaul. A lot of great punk stuff has come out of this label in the past 10 years some of which many of you probably didn’t know existed. Check out this special digital release featuring new recordings by some of the earliest Thumper Punk Records bands below via bandcamp.… Continued →

Every so often a song will pique my interest from a new artist that seemingly comes out of nowhere. This new song “Follow” off the upcoming album from new artist Hallowell takes you on a spiritual journey through beautiful forest-like soundscapes and layered touches of pure magical joy. That’s the best description I can offer when explaining this new song from Hallowell. I could drop in the standard RIYL type sentence but really Hallowell is an artist all his own. Check out the new song “Follow” below.… Continued →

There may be a few bands under a variation of this name but the heavy music duo known as TETELESTAI have been going at it for nearly 10 years and are here to present their nail biting, ear crushing new ep. Get pummeled and crushed by the biting sound of this band. The duo brings about heavy music in a unique manner and presents an ep set worth of songs without sacrificing the heaviness. This is a refreshing take on the genre and something I am sure the majority of IVM heavy music fans will instantly appreciate.… Continued →

I’d like to take a moment and introduce the band The Swifts to all of you. This pop-punk band of Colorado natives have been making a splash in recent months and it was time to give them a post. Thanks to former IVM writer and friend Brian Mercer this band was shared with me. Their peppy sound is like punchy and well layered pop-punk dream come true. All the elements of your favorites bands from yesteryear mixed with a a current and edgy sound meant to hit you with a sense of urgency.… Continued →

Rockfest. The name is carrying more and more clout as the days pass, and rightfully so. Founded by Seventh Day Slumber frontman, Joseph Rojas, Rockfest kicked off as the City Rockfest Tour that would showcase both up and coming bands as well as more seasoned acts, all pretty exceptional. This year’s lineup will feature Righteous Vendetta, Seventh Day Slumber, The Protest, Random Hero, Zahna and Amongst the Giants. Wow.   Rockfest, then came to become the moniker for the newer label, Rockfest Records. The label boasts some especially talented groups like Amongst the Giants, Zahna, The Protest, The Persuaded, Seventh Day Slumber, Random Hero, and Silversyde.… Continued →

So, the way the new album from These 5 Down will be released is as follows: one track per month up til October (maybe more on occasion), when the full album will be set up for purchased as a whole.… Continued →

Amongst the Giants released a beautifully scathing album, “Obscene” last year. If you haven’t heard it yet, you’re really missing out. On my personal “Best of 2018” list, I gave them the #1 spot for a reason. Give it a listen and I think you’ll quickly see why. But I digress. Just a couple weeks ago, the guys released a new music video for the song “Too Late”. The video is really impacting and touches on some pretty real issues a lot of people face. Great message.… Continued →
